Durco SugarBeet Filters - Filter Press Technology

SugarBeet Filters - Durco Filter Press Units May Be Optimized For Maximum Efficiency In Mud Dewatering Or For Desugaring Molasses In Your Sugar Production Process.


Optimized Filtration For SugarBeet Processing

Since the early 1960's Durco Filters has worked with the SugarBeet Processing Industry to develop improved filtration equipment and practices that are specifically designed and engineered for high performance and durability in SugarBeet Process Filtration. Following these decades of experience, we now offer an evolved range of SugarBeet Filter Units & OEM Parts that have been optimized for operation in Your Sugar Production Process.

  • Durco Filter Press Units For Mud Dewatering & Residual Sugar Recovery
  • Durco Filter Press Units For Desugaring Molasses

  • Durco Overhead Filter Press Units For Mud Dewatering & Residual Sugar Recovery

    SugarBeet Post Clarification Filter Press

    After First Carbonation, the reacted juice (from the top of the clarifier) is sent on to the Second Carbonation Step.

    The mud slurry discharged from the bottom of the clarifier is best dewatered using an Durco Filters Overhead Filter Press, which discharges filter cakes (~65% solids) that are saleable as a soil pH enhancer/fertilizer.

    Sugar Beet Filter Press For Residual Sugar Recovery

    Cake Washing for enhanced mud dewatering & residual sugar recovery:

    A Durco Filters Overhead Press w. Membrane Plates reduces channeling of wash water through the filter cake. and enables both secondary pressing and steaming for increased efficiency.

    Additionally, the recovered Sweet Water can be recycled to the slaker for production of Milk of Lime (MoL).

    Automated & Manual Control Options Available.


    Durco Sidebar Filter Press Units For Desugaring Molasses

    Desugaring of Molasses can be accomplished by either the Steffen Process or by Chromatographic Separation.

    In The Steffen Process - Molasses is diluted down with wash water to ~10% dissolved solids content, and mixed with quick lime (CaO). This mixture is cooled to around 50oF, and the resulting saccharate precipitation is best removed using a Filter Press.

    The filtrate from this process is heated to ~200oF, to precipitate more saccharate, and then filtered a second time to capture more sucrose.

    Automated & Manual Control Options Available.

    You can be absolutely confident that Your Durco SugarBeet Filter is a well-proven solution, engineered for high performance operation, reliability, and durability in Your particular sugar production facility.
